Who the fuck thought 18:9 screens was a good idea? I can see making the screen a little wider (16:10), but fucking taller?

>16:10
>wider

Huh?

Holding a phone:
top to bottom = 16
left to right = 9

Sup Forums is getting more like Sup Forums everyday.

your dumb

Explain.

The TALLER galaxy s8 is listed at 18:9. So how would 16:10 not be wider?

>infinity display
>bezzel up and down

It's actually very good for VR.

Who's got the LOOOONGPHONE now?

Well OP, why ISN'T it a good idea?

He's probably a manlet with small hands.

>Videos now have black bars on the side.
>the phone is now needlessly long (it could have been 16:9 without bezels and would have been sleek and compact looking
>adds nothing overall

What about multitasking? You can split the screen evenly in half. And if its AMOLED you can't even tell

I multitask just fine on my Galaxy S6

But you can multitask even better on a 2:1. It splits it into 2 squares. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. If the black bars annoy you enough that's fair but that's the only downside

probably thinks youre talking about landscape 16:10

>18:9
okay why isn't it 2:1 what am i missing something here

Bigger = better

>5.8 inch screen on the small model
Yeah, no. Anyone buying this crap is seriously just giving into the hype.

You do realise that little to no people actually do side-by-side multitasking on their phone, r-right?

What's wrong with a small screen

They should nake a ffffone with 3 slim fucking hardware buttons, not this shit

It's not 18:9, it's 18.5:9
